Red coat, golden pumps

Saturday, December 28, 2013

I wanted my last outfit post of 2013 to be festive and also a good wish for new year, therefore let me introduce you to my brand new red coat ! No other color makes me feel like red does: it's a color for happiness and for self esteem, to me. It just screams: look at me, I am not afraid to be noticed by the other people !. No matter about my faults, after my teenage years when black was the only safe color, I have blossomed into an adult woman that enjoys playing with colors so much, and isn't afraid to dare. This is the philosophy I am embracing for these last days of the year: let's prepare for good resolutions, but let's also appreciate what we achieved so far. Don't you agree with me ?.

I decided to wear this elegant black and golden dress, featuring a black turtleneck top and a flared skirt with a sort of animalier spots print. After all, red, black and gold together are perfect for party days, right ?.

I am a big fan of turtlenecks, and since this dress has a black top part I put a statement necklace on it to give more "light" to the whole look.

I have always wanted a pair of golden pumps, and here they are...an elegant outfit is perfect to wear them, but I will be wearing them also with skinny jeans and a blazer, for sure. The only important thing when it comes to silver or golden shoes is to match them with a non-metallic bag, in my opinion, otherwise it would be too much. I wouldn't wanna look like a giant chocolate bar, even tho I am so fond of it !.

So, I went for my black Zara clutch as bag of choice, simple and with golden details. See it better in the pic below, together with a golden bangle bought a long time ago.

The weather wasn't too cold to show you the dress, bought in a shop, italian brand is "Esplosione", without the coat on, so here's a few pics. I had my hair tied up in a ponytail because I like them more like this with a turtleneck. I wish I was good at trying new hairdos with my hair, but a ponytail is the best I can do, LOL. I keep watching tutorials on youtube but I am not very good at practice when it comes to hair, I am much better at make up ! What about you ?.

This red Kiomi coat has been one of my best purchases, cause I was looking for a coat with a clean cut and this one is just like I wanted: warm because it's mostly woolen, a big egg shaped and the three quarter lenght sleeves make it even more elegant. I was thinking about getting it also in black, but my size was sold out.

Below you find a few pics with the buttoned coat, to see it better. In some pics I was wearing a basque, I always have a hat with me !.

I definately think a red coat is a must have for winter, together with a red lipstick and nail polish, better if it's a bright, bold red. Do you already own one ? Sales could be a great chance to get one if you don't have it already. That's all for today, have a wonderful weekend !.

Hi dear Vale ♥, this is such a wonderful look that I can´t stop watching it! The coat is perfect and I also love your skirt <3 I have some hair-dos with I wear constantly, sometimes I discover a new hair-do and then I wear this new hair-do a longer time until I no longer like it :)

I love red too, in everything. It just draws me in with its vitality. Red always looks great with animal prints. The dress looks like two separate pieces. What a charming garment. You look amazing in this outfit.

Gorgeous! Absolutely stunning posts, but the best part is your incredibly beautiful smile, thanks for adding and sharing that as well. I do love the added touch of you new gold pumps, perfect way to accessoriize this ensemble. i couldn't agree more with you about the color red. I, too, love wearing red. I finally found a red lipstick (which took me forever to find) that actually looks ok on me.
